    Hi,
    I did a backup by R & R, it made two DVDs. One called "startup disc" and the second called "product recovery". Everything went great, and the R & R said that I cannot do another copy - I know, thats right.
    I have formated the HDD, and I tried to do the recovery. I started with "startup disc", the interface has loaded, I chose something like back to factory state, good. The computer restarted, and ask me to put "product recovery" disc. I did, but it said that "this is not the correct disc".

    So now, I am hopeless. I have formated the HDD on a low-level, and need to recover the factory state. I browse the "product recovery" DVD, it contains folder called "Recovery" full of AOD, CRI, IMZ and FDD files. It is not scratched or something, and I did everything via Lenovo ThinkVantage software. The system is XP, if it is important, T60.

    Can anybody help, please?
